Clinton County Sheriff’s deputies arrested Kenneth Snowden Jr., 27, of Lebanon, Ind. He was transported to Boone County and transferred to Whitestown Police Department.

According to Clinton County deputies, Snowden was initially stopped on Interstate 65 in Boone County by a Whitestown Police officer just before 5 a.m. Monday for reckless driving. After the officer made contact with Snowden, he sped away north from the traffic stop. At that time, the officer learned he was wanted in LaPorte County, Ind. for a firearms arrest warrant.

Clinton County deputies said Snowden fled from Boone County into Clinton County at speeds of 100 mph. He exited I-65, just north of State Road 28, by driving off the interstate into a ditch and through a fence. The vehicle cut across a field and continued in a northeast direction. Snowden proceeded to crash through two more fences, before coming to New Castle Road, where he crashed into a ravine and fence.

Upon crashing on New Castle Road, Snowden fled on foot to the north into a heavily wooded area. Law enforcement officers searched the area and K-9 officers were deployed. Snowden was eventually located near the 6600 block of W. Mulberry Jefferson Road.
